Girl's Night In:

When it's time to hang out with the girls, do you always have to go out to have fun? Why not plan a night of fun and relaxation with your friends, right in the comfort of your own home?

Remember how much fun it was to throw a slumber party when you were a little girl? Recapture some of that creative and youthful spirit by throwing your own spa treatment party.

How can you make this a fun and unique experience for you and your friends? Here are a few helpful tips that will get your own unique ideas flowing.

Hopefully you have found a great babysitter to take care of your little ones. This night should be relaxing, lighthearted and fun. Think of ways that you can weave those qualities into every aspect of the evening.

Lots of candles and soft lighting will set the tone for the evening when your guests arrive. Have relaxing music playing in the background, but not music that will put your guests to sleep. Make sure your house is clean and clutter-free, and that everything you need is in order.

When considering what types of food and drink to serve, why not incorporate foods which have healthy and anti-aging qualities to add to the spa experience? Don't forget that beauty also comes from within.

Have plenty of bottled water on hand to replenish fluids and flush out toxins that are released during massage. Try serving South African Rooibus tea for a delicious, caffeine-free antioxidant boost.

Want to offer some type of alcoholic beverage? Why not serve pomegranate martinis or offer your guests a glass of red wine?

Why not begin your beauty treatment party by socializing and painting each others fingernails and toenails? Because each person has their own personal style, be sure to offer your guests a palate of colors that ranges from soft and feminine, to dark and exotic.

Choose quality nail polish from the OPI brand, to keep current in the hottest trends in color.

Next it is time for facials. You should clean, exfoliate, tone and moisturize. Three of the hottest products that will help you achieve great results are made by Juice Beauty Organics and can be purchased at Sephora.

Juice Beauty organic cleansing gel is a great way to get started. Next, exfoliate the skin with their Green Apple peel. Apply Green Apple Antioxidant moisturizer, and finish with a fine mist of their refreshing Hydrating Mist to tone the skin.

Lastly, a relaxing massage will make your evening complete. Avoid using massage oils which contain too much fragrance, as certain people can have unfavorable reactions to it.

Choose versatile massage oil such as Aura Glow Almond, to enhance the quality of the experience.

When it comes to a night of fun and relaxation with your friends, having a spa night is the way to go. The keys to a night of creative revitalization are now in your hands.
